I, Who Hate Marine So Much, Have Become A Future Nika?

Chapter 77: Understanding? No need for that, I just want you dead!

Riding the flowing wind and empowered by Zhong Cang's Qi Refining seventh level divine sense, Maple Flower's speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, several demonic birds were caught up and beheaded by Maple Flower.

"Squawk!"

Seeing this scene, the leader of the demonic birds immediately let out a piercing scream. It was a Demonic Beast leader with a cultivation level of Qi Refining seventh level. Its shrill cry stopped the chaotic demonic bird flock.

Following that, a large number of talented spells were released by the demonic birds, attacking Zhong Cang's flying sword. However, the effect was still minimal.

In reality, spells did not have the effect of reducing damage for teammates. Therefore, while spells could be used in a group attack, they were unable to deal with agile opponents who infiltrated the group. Zhong Cang's Maple Flower was undoubtedly the most agile one. Under his control, Maple Flower was as unpredictable as a thousand-year flowing wind.

"Swish..."

With a comprehensive view of the world, using the bodies of the demonic birds as a barrier, Maple Flower evaded the concentrated attacks of the demonic bird flock several times in a row. Even during this process, its killing spree did not stop.

"Sizzle..."

As Maple Flower flew up and down, several more demonic birds were beheaded.

At the same time, Fan Gong's command did not stop. Seeing Zhong Cang's flying sword displaying its might among the demonic bird flock, he immediately shouted to the others.

"Release all your power!"

"Regardless of whether you hit or not, release your spells into the air!"

"Understood!"

"Boom..."

The spells of the human cultivators made the aerial battlefield even more chaotic. Even accidentally, the leader of the demonic birds was hit by several spells. The pain from the flames and ice blades hitting its body inevitably diverted its attention. It looked towards the several human cultivators on the ground and fiercely flapped its wings, wanting to attack the cultivators who had cast spells on it.

But in the instant its attention was diverted, with a "whoosh," Maple Flower suddenly accelerated and passed through the gaps between countless spells, directly aiming for the neck of the demonic bird leader.

"!!!"

In its final moments, its wild instinct made the large-sized demonic bird, resembling both an eagle and a vulture, shudder all over. It sensed danger and abruptly turned its head towards the direction of the imminent threat.

Then, Maple Flower, which was only a few feet away, entered its field of vision, causing its pupils to contract.

The swift Maple Flower and its sharp blade made it clear to the demonic bird who posed a threat to it.

Therefore, in the first moment, it flapped its wings and shot out countless feathers, hoping to knock Maple Flower down.

Naturally, this sniper attack was unsuccessful. With a comprehensive view of the world, Zhong Cang immediately noticed the trajectory of the feathers shooting towards Maple Flower.

"Swish..."

Maple Flower's speed did not diminish in the slightest, it just swayed up and down slightly. Like a phantom, it penetrated through the obstruction of feathers filling the sky.

This scene clearly exceeded the expectations of the demonic bird leader.

And as Maple Flower approached closer and closer, the sense of danger and lethal threat emanating from it also struck the mind of the demonic bird leader, making it shudder.

However, it must be said that as a leader, it also belonged to the genius category among Demonic Beasts.

Therefore, Maple Flower's approach did not make it panic.

"Croak!"

Accompanied by a special roar, a dazzling green light suddenly burst forth from the demonic bird leader's body as Maple Flower approached. These green lights stirred up a fierce wind in the natural world, gathering the flowing wind and forming a rapidly rotating wind shield around its body.

A talent spell, Storm Shield!

This shield made the demonic bird feel at ease and caused a series of regretful sighs from the people below.

"Damn it, just a little bit more!"

Outside, the cultivators who were paying attention to this battle were shaking their heads.

However, they didn't show any surprise on their faces, only a sense of inevitability.

"Indeed, the cultivation level of Qi Refining Fifth Layer is still too low. Even with a sneak attack, Zhong Cang is unable to deal with the Demonic Beast at Qi Refining Seventh Layer."

"His first place ranking will come to an end here."

"He will indeed drop from first place, but he is clever. He has gathered a large number of subordinates. These subordinates will prevent him from dying, but his ranking will gradually decline. It remains to be seen how high he can rank in the end."

"I think he will fall out of the top one hundred. Qi Refining Fifth Layer is really too low..."

Many people outside were discussing this scene.

Due to Zhong Kangping's humility, although the people surrounding him sighed, there were still some who comforted him, saying that even if Zhong Cang falls from first place, his previous performance will still be recognized by the senior members of the sect.

As for Zhong Kangping, his only wish has always been for Zhong Cang to enter the inner sect.

Therefore, although he sighed a bit at the scene before him, he didn't feel too disappointed because he had prepared himself mentally early on.

On the other hand, Zhong Cang's aunt, Liu Qin, attracted some strange looks from the people around her due to her previous exclamation.

No one directly criticized Zhong Cang, but the sighs of others still made Liu Qin blush.

For the first time, she prayed to the gods and buddhas in her heart, hoping that Zhong Cang would do better.

...

There was a lot of chaos outside, but it was blocked by the Illusory Void Realm and didn't disturb Zhong Cang at all.

He heard the sighs of his subordinates around him, but it didn't disturb his heart.

Even the sudden release of the storm shield by the leader of the demonic birds didn't faze Zhong Cang.

The Sword Heart itself can suppress chaotic emotions, and with the double Sword Heart, Zhong Cang remained calm and composed, unaffected by the crumbling of Mount Tai or the fleeting of a deer.

At this moment, he simply looked deeply at the storm shield of the leader of the demonic birds.

After a moment, a cold light flashed in Zhong Cang's eyes, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Found it!"

Before the words fell, Zhong Cang slightly pointed his sword upwards.

"Whoosh..."

With Zhong Cang's movement, the Maple Flower that was speeding forward also flew towards the upper diagonal direction.

"Sizzle..."

The Maple Flower flying diagonally upwards made contact with the storm shield in the next moment.

And a shocking scene that stunned the leader of the demonic birds appeared.

With a "sizzle" sound, after making contact with the storm shield, the Maple Flower was not blocked or thrown away. Instead, it smoothly cut into the direction of the storm shield's rotation like the wind.

In the next moment, with Zhong Cang's pull, the Maple Flower appeared from inside the storm shield and rushed towards the leader of the demonic birds.

The high-speed rotating storm shield did not hinder the Maple Flower at all. On the contrary, the force of the storm's high-speed rotation made the Maple Flower even faster in the end!

"?!?!"

This scene made the leader of the demonic birds widen its eyes.

If it were human, it would definitely roar in disbelief.

Even now, its eyes were filled with incomprehension.

It didn't understand why its talented spell, the storm shield, couldn't stop the flying Maple Flower and even assisted it.

However, Zhong Cang didn't need it to understand.

All he wanted was for it to die.

"Whoosh!"
